Xiapi's Condition

Lie Fan: "Master Jia Xu, what do you think if I change Xiapi's Governor to a better-suited person for the job, they have the talent to hold the position and a veteran in the fields of governing and politics."

Jia Xu: "Oh? Who does My Lord think can be assigned as the Governoe Of Xiapi to replace this Jia You?"

Lie Fan: "Chancellor Of Jibei Kingdom, Chen Gui is told to be a wise and excellent person that cares for the people, even though is a demotion from his original position but he is best suited to serve as Xiapi's Governor and the Chen Family is an old Noble Family here in Xiapi"

Jia Xu: "Looks like My Lord has done his investigation before, this is Chen Gui I have heard of him as he is assigned to be the Chancellor of Jibei and From what I heard of him in the Court I think he is a perfect candidate"

Lie Fan: "Okay then that's good, as our plan tomorrow you will be the one who suggests this Idea and I will act as a good general who listens to his advisor"

Jia Xu heeds Lie Fan's order and then takes his leave to go to his room to rest to prepare for tomorrow, Lie Fan takes out his book of knowledge and put an entry where he needs to recruit Mi Zhu and Chen Deng who is Chen Gui talented son also like his father

Lie Fan then saw the entry where he put needed to recruit Hua Tuo, seeing as their position is near its hometown and province he takes note to inform Jia Xu to send some Oriole members to contact him

He also uses the Book of Knowledge to search for easy recipes for medicines breakthrough like medicines for curing common cold symptoms, morphine, and Aspirin

After writing a list of easy-to-make medicines and some breakthrough in how to do surgery correctly, Lie Fan takes his rest for the day to rest his body after a long tiring journey

The Next Day, Lie Fan and Jia Xu accompanied by Lie Fan's bodyguards was walking towards the main hall where they will do the meeting and when they arrived some officials alongside Jia You already waited for them in there

Jia You: "Good Morning Lord Inspector, I hope you have a good rest yesterday"

Lie Fa: "Yes Thank You My rest is very good, so can we start the meeting right now or do we still need to wait?"

Jia You: "We can start immediately Lord! Please take my seat to lead the meeting today"

Lie Fan takes the Governor's Seat and his left side is Jia You while his right side is Jia Xu, their meeting began with the report on the Agriculture state in Xiapi where they don't have many thanks to the taxes that the Emperor impose when though it's already been halved

Lie Fan wanted to implement the crop rotation system here in Xiapi and all of Xu Province but he needed people that can be trusted first in Xiapi's Government until Chen Gui became the Governor and he will put Chen Deng and Mi Zhu in the administration also

Historical officers that have proven their capabilities then Lie Fan can rest easy letting them hold the project and handle it freely without needing intensive supervision

Jia Xu: "We need to improve the Agriculture in Xiapi immediately so we can sustain the population and have a surplus of food, what do Inspector Lie think?"

Lie Fan: "Yes! As Master Jia Xu says, I wanted to see new inventions made to improve our Agriculture so the people can eat and the chance of them joining the Yellow Turbans remnant is small"

The Head Of The Agriculture department promised to do so and next the Head Of The Financial Department reported the city treasury is almost empty thanks to the taxes the Emperor requested so they were in dire need of funds to continue sustaining the city expenses

Lie Fan told them to raise more funds by taking a loan from the Mi Clan and in return they just need to pay 30% of their taxes be it's trade tax, normal taxes, and also free tariff for their trading caravan to enter Xiapi for 5 years

The Head Of the Financial Department opposed this as this will reduce their income, Lie Fan told them that the Income is not only from them and this is more beneficial in the long run and Jia Xu on the side agree with what Lie Fan suggested

Jia Xu also immediately subtly told them that they feel the money they can corrupt will shrink which was immediately denied by The Head Of The Financial Department, the other officials silently glared at him not knowing that everything is seen in Jia Xu's eyes

After that, The Military Commander of Xiapi came forward and reported that they had 15.000 soldiers consisting of 8.000 Infantry, 4.000 Archers, and 3.000 cavalry. As he is the Military Commander at Xiapi, Lie Fan asks for his name which he replies that his name is Ze Rong

Remembering this name looks like Ze Rong joined at Xiapi Administration before he left and became a Buddhist leader that have hundreds of followers before joining Tao Qian again in the future who betrayed the former later on when Cao Cao attacked Xu Province

Seeing that the man is still upright now and not becoming a greedy and bloodthirsty Buddhist leader in the future, Lie Fan believes that he can use this man as General of Xiapi's army for now and use the eye of Erlang Shen to check his attributes alongside Jia Xu's attribute also

•Ze Rong

STR: 315(Max) VIT: 73 AGI: 75 INT: 57

•Jia Xu

INT: 825 WIS: 140 VIT: 68 CHR: 95

Seeing the maximum word at Ze Rong strength attribute, Lie Fan knows that it means he has reached his potential, and the only way to change it is by using the system which he thinks is not necessary as the items in the store are expensive and he needs to safe his points wisely

Jia Xu's attributes on the other hand showed the class of the advisor he is and haven't reached his full potential yet which he thinks that he will reach if according to history the year he served under Cao Cao

Lie Fan ordered Ze Rong to keep training the army as they would be used later as part of his expedition force to clear the remnants of Yellow Turbans that entered Xu Province from the neighboring Yan, Yu, and Qing Province

Ze Rong received the order and promised to train the army, Seeing that the 3 essential departments had reported their report Lie Fan told Jia Xu to handle the rest while he took a walk at Xiapi to see the condition of livelihood in Xiapi

Jia Xu received the order and alongside Jia You he began to oversee the other departments' reports, Lie Fan on the other hand brought his bodyguards and went to take a walk at Xiapi.

From his close observation, he can see that the people in Xiapi are feeling mediocre at best with their condition and don't panic about how there is a rebellion before

Lie Fan protected by bodyguards wearing a mask attracted the attention of the people there, pointing and whispering talking about him others thought he was an important person while others think he is a weird man

While walking he saw the Mi Clan Merchant Shop, seeing this he enters the shop and found out that the store had many guests looking at the commodities they were selling

Seeing the price and commodities that they were selling, he thinks that the price is relatively normal with the quality of the commodities they were selling, and as he was looking through the merchandise suddenly a person called him from the back

Mi Yu: "Young Master Lie! Oh, I should call you Inspector Lie now, what a surprise to see you here!"

Lie Fan turns around and sees that it was Mi Yu the Mi Clan branch member he meet at Huai'An that will be his ticket to get closer to the Mi Clan seeing that maybe in 5-6 years Mi Zhu will succeed his father position

Lie Fan: "Sir Mi Yu! What a surprise to see you here well even though this is your Family store, how are you?"

Mi Yu: "I'm good, I'm good, I heard from my nephew that Inspector Lie arrived at Xiapi yesterday and now become the Inspector Of Xu Province at such a young age! I never thought that the Young Master I meet at Huai'An before will become the Inspector of Xu Province!"

Lie Fan: "Hahaha! I never thought as well that I will become the Inspector Of Xu Province at such Young Age! By the way, what is Sir Mi Yu doing here in the store?"

Mi Yu: "We'll I come here to meet one of my old friends Wang Yan, his Teacher is sick so I take him out to cheer him up"

Lie Fan: " I see, then maybe we can have some tea next time to discuss our adventures?"

Mi Yu: "Of Course! Well, then I take M-"

???: "Brother Mi Yu I'm here!"

Both Lie Fan and Mi Yu turn around to see the one calling Mi Yu, Lie Fan saw an early 30 years old man walking towards them with the bearing of a scholar accompanied by looks like a page follwing the man from behind

Mi Yu: "Ah Wang Yan! Come here and let me introduce you to My friend and our new Inspector Of Xu Province Inspector Lie Fan from Huai'An, I met him before in Huai'An when I'm trading there!"

Wang Yan: "Hello Inspector Lie! I'm Wang Yan a Palace Gentleman in The Imperial Court but I'm taking a break due to the news that My Teacher Yang Ci is sick"
